Remove support for the Binary Content extension [RFC3516].
“If the server does not know how to decode the section's CTE, it MUST fail the request and issue a "NO" response that contains the "UNKNOWN-CTE" extended response code.” — [RFC3516 section 4.3] Unfortunately the client doesn't know which message couldn't be decoded, so it can't fallback and use BODY instead. This made ‘use-binary=NO’ pretty much mandatory. Hence we remove support for BINARY [RFC3516]. Instead, we increase the thresold for when to add Zlib full flush points from 4096 to the buffer size (32768).
